Chapter 318 Shen Lang's Secret
Chapter 318 Shen Lang's Secret
“I didn’t answer her question directly.”
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "I said, 'What does it matter if I hate you or not? This question is meaningless. I just want to pay back the money and take good care of my mother until she wakes up and recovers.' These are my exact words."
indeed so.
To put it bluntly, if we think about it from another perspective, Cheng Xintong is innocent in this matter, and even she herself did not expect that the tall image of her father for many years would collapse when she just entered college.
Jiang Jun pondered over what Shen Lang said in his heart. He nodded slowly and felt that there was nothing wrong with saying that. He then opened his mouth and asked.
"So after Xintong heard you, how did she answer you?"
This time, after hearing Jiang Jun's question, Shen Lang fell into silence for a long time.
"Xintong said, 'My father is not here, but I am here. He didn't finish the things he should do, so I will do them for him.' After saying this, Xintong got on the bus and went to the train station."
"I know in my heart what she meant by this."
Obviously, Jiang Jun also knew what their conversations meant, and after so many contacts with Cheng Xintong, Jiang Jun had a certain understanding of her.
Cheng Xintong would go to the hospital to visit Lin Xiang again and again, and each time she would bring flowers and fruits. These were definitely not just for show.
Later, after she talked about those things with Shen Lang, she even did not go home during the winter vacation. She chose to do a hard part-time job like Shen Lang and return the money she earned to Shen Lang.
Once she embarks on this path, Cheng Xintong will never give up.
Because she is a girl with strong self-esteem and strong will, she always has clear goals in mind about what she wants to do.
So in fact, boys and girls are the same. They may be innocent boys and girls one day, but they may grow up overnight the next day.
Cheng Xintong didn't know how much money her father owed Shen Lang's family, and she didn't ask Shen Lang for the specific amount, but the money must be a lot. For her as a college student, it was an astronomical figure.
But in Cheng Xintong's heart, no matter how she pays back, the debt can never be repaid, because it is not just about money.
After hearing these words, now the truth of the matter has been revealed, Jiang Jun fell into silence for a long time, digesting these things in his heart.
"Let me ask you, when you knew Xintong's identity and she confessed all these things to you, what did you think? Were you surprised?" Jiang Jun couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, the expression on Shen Lang's face seemed very calm, and he didn't look surprised at all.
"It's a little bit unexpected, but not surprising."
"What?"
Shen Lang smiled calmly and explained, "Because I have seen what Xintong's father looks like in one of my mother's client files. She and her father Cheng Changyang look so similar, especially her eyes."
"So, when I first met Xintong not long after school started, I already had doubts about her. Because of this, I can tell you a little secret, but don't tell anyone else." Shen Lang said with a mysterious smile.
"Get lost. Don't you know what our relationship is? Tell me now." Jiang Jun said to him in a disdainful manner.
Shen Lang pondered for a while and said something that seemed small but surprised Jiang Jun greatly.
When Shen Lang first guessed Cheng Xintong's identity, he had originally thought about investigating it. At that time, he had not yet changed his major, and Jiang Jun was in a coma in the hospital.
At that time, Shen Lang's former classmate, classmate and roommate Zhou Qiwen also set his sights on Cheng Xintong and became interested in her.
Later, Shen Lang transferred to the Computer Science Department, but during that period, he had been using his relationship with Zhou Qiwen to secretly learn about Cheng Xintong, including the fact that Zhou Qiwen later publicly confessed his love to Cheng Xintong in the school cafeteria. In fact, the mastermind behind the scenes was Shen Lang.
If Shen Lang hadn't mentioned these things, Jiang Jun would almost have forgotten that these things had happened.
"Damn, there are actually such secrets... From now on, I won't call you Lao Lang anymore. I'll call you 'Lao Liu'."
Jiang Jun looked at Shen Lang with a surprised expression, hesitated for a moment and said: "Then..."
"Hey, stop talking for now. I was so busy talking to you that I almost forgot the time."
Shen Lang interrupted Jiang Jun and quickly stood up and picked up his shoulder bag. After throwing the rice rolls on the table into the trash can, he quickly said, "Let's go, let's go downstairs first. If we continue talking, I think we will be late. Let's talk while walking."
Hearing this, Jiang Jun responded lightly, then stood up and followed Shen Lang downstairs.
He said that just now, but after Shen Lang walked out of the ward, he walked as slowly as a rabbit. The elevator was full and he had to wait, but he didn't even wait and went down the stairs directly.
Looking at Shen Lang's back as he quickly walked down the stairs, when he reached the transfer floor, he turned around and waved at himself, indicating that he should follow him quickly.
This scene made Jiang Jun's heart pause.
Boy, you never thought of letting me chat with you on the way downstairs, right?
Seeing this, he smiled bitterly, quickened his pace and followed Shen Lang down the stairs.
However, what Jiang Jun did not expect was that when the two of them went downstairs together and walked out to the roadside outside the hospital entrance, Shen Lang walked under a tree and suddenly stopped as if he was no longer in a hurry.
Jiang Jun stood next to him, frowned and asked in confusion: "Why don't you leave? Weren't you in a hurry to come out just now?"
"Hehe." Shen Lang smiled frivolously, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lowered his head and lit one, and said with a smile: "There is still time for a cigarette, but I can't smoke it up there."
Jiang Jun:……? ?
"I'll smoke you to death every day. Your smoking addiction is getting worse and worse. Smoke less." Jiang Jun glared at him and said.
"Well, I have no choice. I'm really sleepy. I need to smoke one to wake myself up."
As he spoke, Shen Lang took out his phone and checked the time. He then said with a cigarette butt between his lips, "Damn it, I really have to leave now. When I'm done with my work, I'll come back and give you a gift to celebrate. Wait."
Jiang Jun asked with a speechless expression: "Which day is 'which day'?"
"tomorrow."
He smiled and threw the cigarette butt between his fingers into the ashtray on the side of the road. He waved to Jiang Jun and said, "Don't miss me, I'm leaving."
After he finished speaking, he turned around, scanned the code of an electric bike and left.
Jiang Jun stood there and watched him leave, a gratified smile of an old father appearing on his face.
In Jiang Jun's mind, Shen Lang is always so free and easy, and he doesn't seem to be bound by things. He also knows what he wants to do.
Unlike Jiang Jun, after listening to what Shen Lang said in the ward, he might still be distracted and thinking about those things after returning home, but Shen Lang was different. After going downstairs from the ward, he put those "external matters" behind him, finished a cigarette to refresh himself, and immediately rushed to do his part-time job.
From a certain perspective...
"hiss."
Jiang Jun stood there, looking at the direction where Shen Lang had just left, frowning and muttering softly, "Why do I feel that Lao Lang and Xin Tong seem to be quite similar in some ways?"
Based on this idea, it seemed that everything had returned to the starting point, back to the question that Jiang Jun had asked Shen Lang when he first came to the hospital.
[Do you think there is pure friendship between men and women? ]
It seemed like everything was right again.
Jiang Jun smiled, drove out of the hospital and returned to Galaxy Bay.
After returning home, Jiang Jun suddenly remembered that there was something very important that he had not done.
He went to the hospital to find Shen Lang today. In addition to giving the amulet to Aunt Xiang, he also wanted to talk to Shen Lang about his game project, hoping to trick Shen Lang into becoming the first member of his team.
The first thing was completed, but later because of the accidental encounter with Cheng Xintong in the hospital, the second thing he was supposed to talk about was diverted.
Jiang Jun sat on the sofa, scratched his hair with a wry smile, and said softly.
"Forget it, let's have a good chat with him some other day."
